with barack obama's issues and not theirs. so if they're willing to move and change and compromise, if marco rubio is willing to help pass a comprehensive immigration bill and actually succeed at it, and a lot of republicans vote for, it then he will get a lot of credit. if he leads the way on immigration and a lot of republicans vote no, then he's not going to be a savior of the party. >> to his point, robert, i don't know if you read e.j. deon's column in "the washington post" today, he said it's a question of whether or not the republican party is rebranding or rethinking, and he wrote, republicans are slowly realizing that the nation's priorities are not the gop's traditional priorities. what do you make of that? >> i think it's a combination of both. i think it's rebranding but also rethinking. in order to rebrand yourself, tough rethink about your positions. in order to rethink your positions, you clearly have to rebrand them -- >> for example, you said you don't agree with all of rubio's positions. what are some of the

ads, she touted obama care. could a majority of kentuckians really back her political policy substances, or do you think that it's just star power that will get her the most attention? >> well, i think that's what she's trying to weigh. that's what a lot of democrats in kentucky are trying to weigh. you know, at the moment it's really amazing when you think that this ad from american crossroads came out so early. we're talking about a campaign that's a year away at least before he even starts to come up on the radar. it's worth noting that the american crossroads president is a former campaign manager and former chief of staff to mitch mcconnell, so this was obviously a shot across the bow, a preemptive streak, if you will. some democrats think she would be formidable because she has star power and charisma. she would have access to an enormous amount of money. kentucky, though, is culturally and politically a conservative state. that's on the other side of the ledger. she has -- very first thing she has to do i
